Something like a Chapter 50.5

TN: This is a bonus chapter to celebrate 1000 bookmarks. It continues chapter 50 past the ending. The author felt like it was a bit wasteful just to have them sleep, so she wrote this as an extension. Like a what if story.

If you have a syosetu account, perhaps consider giving this story a bookmark. Link to this chapter if you want to bookmark the story from there.

*This is not in the main story.*

“Ahaha, okay, I’m tired! And sweaty!”

We had a pillow fight until we were both exhausted. It was like we were kids on a feel trip.

Sara and I were heavily breathing, shoulders ragged, and both rolled onto our respective beds.

My hair was unkempt, and even though I already took a shower, I was uncomfortably sweaty.

“Ahahaha, that was fun! I always wanted to have a pillow fight.”

“This was actually my first time too. If Sara had fun then it was worth it.”

“Eh? Did Shiori-san not have fun?”

“No, I enjoyed it. Besides, you’ll get a good sleep if you feel tired before bed.”

I think I may be too old to try a pillow fight, but it was surprisingly fun.

I did wonder what to do when I flug that pillow at Sara. After the rampage that followed, it brought back feelings of when I was a child. I can’t help but feel refreshed.

“Let’s go to bed. Could I turn off the lights.”

“Yeah. . .Ah, wait. I want to go to the bathroom before going to bed.” 

Sara got up to get out of bed. However when she stood up, she slipped on the futon below.

“Kya. . !”

“Watch out!”

Perhaps because of my sheets, or exhaustion. Sara, after looking so giddy, fully collapsed.

I quickly stretched out my arms to be a cushion for her.

Sara fell on top of me. This isn’t good. No, it’s good that she is safe, but now I noticed how close her beautiful face is.

“Are you okay?”

As I asked while she was in a stunned state. She nodded although still surprised.

“Yeah, I’m okay. I fell on the futon, and Shiori-san protected me. . . thank you.”

“Good. If so, could you back up? You are. . . a little closer.”

I couldn’t talk at this distance, so I turned my head to the side. We are too close. She is so close, and the distance between our faces is about 15 cm. If I peek up a little our faces would get to a place we could kiss, but I cannot face her with my heart so shaky.

Moreover, Looking up while being pushed down makes Sara more divine by 30%, due to the backlighting effect of the room’s light! Hahh, I already like her! But this is priceless! ! 

Anyways, isn’t this too absurd? This isn’t limited to Yuri, but any romantic comedy “ I accidentally fell and pushed you down☆”. I never thought there would be a day when I experienced it.

When those scenes appeared in a manga, anime or novel, I’d laugh and think to myself, “that would never happen”. It was popcorn entertainment, but now this situation is bananas and it’s here now! As expected of a Yuri game world! ! !

Or rather, I’m too distracted and isolated in my head, so I’d like for her to get off quickly, but Sara didn’t easily retreat.

For whatever reason, when I turned my gaze to face her, our eyes met perfectly. She was staring at me.

“Hey, what are you looking at! It’s embarrassing, so get off soon. . .”

“Well, It’s because bashful Shiori-san is too cute.”

“Cu. . .You’re teasing me by saying that again.”

“Well, I really think so. Shiori-san is so cute.”

At that moment I thought I would die.

I want you to imagine it.  Pushed down by your favorite person, close range. Eyes near, and saying you’re cute with a smile on their face.

That’s why it’s too lethal. It’s too violent! I’m against violence!

“It’s the opposite of yesterday. In the end, it feels much better for Shiori-san to be pushed down rather than the other way around.”

“You don’t have to say that. There won’t be this opportunity . . . again.”

Sara’s right hand rested on my cheek, and her thumb touched my lips. My words stopped as I looked up at Sara again, her face was even closer than before.

This is awful. I do not have the confidence to hide my feelings at this distance. My body is hot, my face is red, it has been rise for a while now, and my heart is pounding to the point it can be heard. At this distance Sara will notice it.

“Shiori-san, close your eyes.”

Sara said mimicking yesterday’s words.

This is bad. I might cry If I close my eyes and receive a counter headbutt. My eyes were locked onto her light red lips, so close I could reach them if I stood up a bit.

I want to say I like it. If I could say it, Surely it would be easy.

“Shiori-san.”

After hearing my name I gently closed my eyes despite my quivering hands.

No way it can be easy. She was hurt by Tomoda-san, but she probably trusts me the most. If she found out that I am also attracted to her just like tomoda-san it’d devastate her. What more she’d know after pushing me down at a sleepover.

That needs to be avoided.

“Please, Sara. Can you get off, I already surrendered.”

Perhaps because it was a serious request, she nodded and finally raised her body off me.

Maybe she regrets what she has done too much as she is cutely sitting upright with a childish face, like she was waiting to be scolded. I can’t say anything to her after all.

“Let’s stop doing this.”

I said that and laughed. With relief “Yeah, I’m sorry.” Sara apologized.

That is the end of this story. It was just too much for my heart.

– – -But it’s impossible not to think about. I can’t forget looking up and seeing Sara’s expression. Her voice as she said I was cute, and the softness of her thumb when she touched my lips.

“Hey, How about you go to the bathroom? Then let’s go to sleep early.”

“O-K”

After seeing Sara leaving the room, I fell into my futon and I could finally relax. I’m exhausted. My spirit was smashed to the point where the pillow fight was incomparable. My HP was already zero before this happened.

I decided to have Sara turn off the lights, and I quickly sneaked into my futon before anything could happen.

However, what should I do? I may not be able to sleep tonight either. I felt like I could smell Sara from the comforter I have over my head.
